General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI,
I understand your concern.
Postinor is plan contraceptive for emergency contraception. It is effective when taken within 72 hours of the sex ( earlier the better).
Postinor is a high dose hormonal preparation & is liable to cause abdominal bloating, nausea, menstrual irregularities for couple of months to follow the intake of Postinor.
I don't think you have possibility of pregnancy, still you are too much doubtful, you can go for home pregnancy test to exclude it & satisfy your mind.
Thanks.
